Kittens of Lido di Venezia

June 6, 2009

Recently I visited the township cat shelter of Venice in Malamocco (Lido di Venezia, Italy) and I left there a piece of my heart. All the hosted cats have food, shelter from sun and rain, heating in the winter and a veterinary check them weekly. But they need to be loved as they need food, cure and all the rest. If you want to learn more about these cats you can visit www.dingovenezia.it

Beautiful photos. I'm glad to hear that this shelter takes such good care of the kitties, but this picture tells the rest of the story .... help! I need love!

Love this pic! I had a cat that would climb the fence to get out of the backyard when I was a teen. This cutie looks completely comfortable climbing!

But this pic is my favorite! Kitties loving each other as well as getting human affection. I just wish I could give them all a home. Thanks to those who do shelter rescue kittens.

Decca - 1 year, 2 months ago

What wonderful cats. I urge any of you who have free time to volunteer at your local shelter. At the place where I am we are desperate for help. There are never enough laps to take care of all the kitties waiting for homes. If you don't have time to volunteer, perhaps you could throw a donation their way. We need all the help we can get.

this looks like how I feel early in the morning
